Huesos olvidados
Preston, Douglas

Young archaeologist Nora Kelly receives an extraordinary proposal: to lead a team in search of the so-called "Lost Camp" of the Donner expedition. The mystery of it dates back to 1847, when a group of pioneers became trapped in the mountains of California and their trail was lost until some starving survivors were able to emerge from the desert, raving about hunger, murder ... and cannibalism. Now, the surprising discovery of the diary of one of the victims that contains an enigmatic description of the camp promises to be the definitive clue to locate it. Nora agrees to lead an expedition to reveal her long-buried secrets but, once in the mountains, she realizes this is just the first step in a hair-raising adventure. Because as they uncover ancient bones and gold coins, the truth that comes to light is far more shocking and bizarre than mere cannibalism. And when those horrors of the past lead to new violence in the present, rookie FBI agent Corrie Swanson is assigned to the case...only to discover that her first investigation could very well be her last.
